    Does the Gigabyte GC-WBAX210 have an M.2 card?

    I was going to get an AX210 M.2 module and a PCIe x1 adaptor, but I found the GC-WBAX210. Only thing is I haven't found for sure if it has a removable M.2 card. I'd like the versatility of an M.2 card.

    Pagefile location: SSD, M.2, or Optane?

    Imagine that you have an application which uses all your RAM and then some. As such it uses the pagefile. Where is the best location for your pagefile? SSD, M.2, or Optane? Does PCIe v4 make a difference? Has anyone done tests?
